1. Ceramics and silverware

If you have silverware somewhere in your home, you should find it and check if it is hallmarked. This was a usual practice, and if you see any marks on your silverware, there is a high chance that it is valuable and you can sell it.

Even if silverware items are not the most popular choice right now, you might still be lucky and find someone who wants to buy them. If you can’t find anyone to sell your silver to, you can still sell the silver for its value in weight, and this can give you some extra bucks.

Ceramics are some of the most expensive antiques that you might have in your home. And you can sell them for a nice price. First of all, you need to do a little bit of research and see if you can find any stamps on them. In this way, you can identify who the manufacturer is and find out their value.

    Many people collect old records and go to Salvation Army store or the library’s annual book sale. When you donate your records you can deduct amount on your income tax if you use govt approved charity. The Salvation Army and Goodwill can tell you how much to deduct for each record.
